Chapter 1731 Dreaming Back to Campus

Entangled, stuck, shaky, ever-changing——

The stadium was still full of rustling noises. No one spoke or conversed, but the noise could not be completely eliminated. However, the two players facing each other across the net had no time to be distracted and were immersed in the game. You come and go, running, sprinting and running.

Jilong, his attention was completely concentrated, completely forgetting himself.

For a moment, it seemed as if he had returned to the Bruins team again. Teammates such as Gao Wen and McDonald were watching the game from the sidelines, while he was fighting on the court. Although he was alone, he had a huge team to back him up. Focus wholeheartedly on the game.

There is no need to think about bonuses and living expenses, no need to think about registration qualifications and schedule planning, no need to think about not having the funds to hire a coaching team so that you have to think about tactics and arrangements for training, and no need to think about whether you should continue your career or give up your extravagant hopes.

Just...running, carefree, wholeheartedly, loving tennis.

Push the ground, brake——

Forehand, a diagonal sweep, "inside-out", tearing a hole across the court. Duckworth stopped and turned suddenly in an attempt to save the ball but failed to control his body. He watched the tennis ball go from His right side slid past, landed in the boundary, and bounced out like a cannonball being discharged.

boom!

The air stirs——

Break!

The second break of serve in the second set, "5:1", Jilong expanded the lead, and was about to usher in his own serve to win the game.

Duckworth just threw the racket.

"ah!"

Giron clenched his fists and roared angrily. He raised his head and saw Gawain and Macdonald cheering, cheering, roaring and clapping.

Everything was exactly the same as in the memory, and my blood boiled involuntarily.

Jilong seems to have found his state. For the first time in a year, he has found a familiar self and a familiar style. He is struggling to find what he has been exploring. He keeps going around in circles as if he is trapped in a maze without any clue. Looking back suddenly, But it just appeared.

That feeling is really indescribable.

But, so beautiful, so happy.

His confidence climbed up little by little. Looking at Gao Wen and Macdonald in the stands, it seemed that he was finally not fighting alone.

After serving to win the game, Geelong experienced some fluctuations and made frequent mistakes. He actually faced the crisis of break point again——

Although he led by two service breaks in the second set, this was not a serious crisis; but what was really bad was that the fluctuations in concentration were distracting, and then the nightmare of the past half year came back again, that kind of wetness. The sticky discomfort returned to the palm of my hand at every opportunity.

Those mistakes, those failures, those confusions and difficulties... I am still hitting the ball, but I seem to have forgotten the method and purpose of hitting the ball. In the end, I hit the wall while hitting the ball again and again. There was a banging sound, and his head was bleeding, but he still didn't dare to stop.

I'm afraid that if I stop once, I may lose the motivation to continue moving forward, but I don't know how to change the predicament, and then I will be trapped in the vicious cycle of "hitting the wall - losing - continuing to hit the wall - continuing to lose". In addition to running blindly, Besides, I have no idea what I should do.

The nightmare gripped the heart tightly.

Involuntarily, Jilong wiped his palms with a towel.

Then, Jilong saw his teammates.

Gawain is still the same Gawain, attentive and bright-eyed, no words are needed, a look is enough.

"I trust you."

No matter when, Gao Wen always silently becomes the backing of the team, like a spiritual pillar, leading them to find a glimmer of light in the difficult situation, and moving forward unswervingly, fighting all the way, running all the way, and challenging all the way. , Burn all the way and never give up.

call.

Jiron let out a breath.

Find his focus again, continue to insist on himself, continue to persist in the game, there is no need to change, what he needs is just to believe in himself.

Then--

You come and go, entangled endlessly, and the back and forth collision lasted for eight minutes, saving three break points and missing two match points at the end.

A straight forehand shot ran through the entire court and scored the winning point.

"Won!"

Jilong, this is the only thought in his mind.

After losing continuously in the Challenge and Hope Games, they ended up winning two games in a row in the Rogers Cup Qualifying Tournament!

The last time Geelong won consecutively was in Seoul two months ago, but I never expected that the long two-month trough would usher in a bright future in such a way. When the winning streak was ushered in again, it would actually be accompanied by a career. His first breakthrough, he advanced to the main draw through the qualifying rounds for the first time in his career.

At the same time, after a full year, Geelong is about to step into the main draw of ATP level events again——

This was here a year ago, going round and round, and it is still here a year later.

Everything seemed familiar, but yet it seemed completely different.

Jilong couldn't control himself anymore, so he roared out.

Perhaps, in the eyes of others, it is difficult to understand: Isn’t it just a seat in the main competition? It's not the semi-finals or the championship. Is it worth making such a fuss about?

But in fact, in addition to the top 50 and 100 players in the world, there are more than 3,000 unknown and low-ranked players in the tennis world. This top sport with more than one billion viewers worldwide, truly Only a handful of players have gained attention.

In highly commercialized competitive sports such as football and basketball, in addition to the top leagues, events at different levels and in different regions also attract a large number of viewers. Even non-professional and semi-professional athletes can get attention. However, the world of tennis is so cruel So bloody.

Just like Geelong.

The proud son of the NCAA is now struggling in the Challenger League. It is extremely difficult to even make a living, let alone achieve glory.

Even if it is just a seat in the main game, it is extremely precious to him.

MacDonald understands, 100 percent.

Looking at Giron who was finally released, MacDonald seemed to have seen himself in the past six months, and he couldn't help but feel excited.

And, it continued until the end of the game, looking at the oncoming Geelong——

Unlike those large stadiums, these small stadiums have no locker rooms or player tunnels. Players and spectators leave through the same aisle. Spectators can get up close to these players. If they want, they can stay at the exit after the game. Get autograph opportunities.

Jilong's footsteps paused slightly. The surging crowds on the three floors in front of him and the three outside were obviously not waiting for him. All their eyes were focused on Gao Wen, but Gao Wen seemed completely unaware and ignored the fans and spectators. Together with Macdonald, wait for Geelong to appear.

"Marcos, great game!"

"Jilong, you are my prince!"

Gao Wen and McDonald, two living treasures, shouted like fanatical fans, instantly dreaming back to the NCAA. That's how those fans shouted for Geelong.
